Abstract:

Abstract This study aims to describe the experience from an occupational therapy internship with female adolescents being treated for problems related to the use of alcohol and other drugs in the collective construction of a rap song. The methodology was based on expanded clinical practice concepts, mental health, psychosocial attention and life projects. The group was made up of six female users, with 28 interventions from March to July 2013, with the mediation of a professor and two interns. The musical production highlighted: violence against women; the use of drugs; criminality; and the need for a protective factor, namely, spirituality/religiosity. The actions of the occupational therapist with these adolescents transformed the meetings in spaces for affective exchanges and positive experiences.
